Job 16:2-6

²“I have heard many things like these;

miserable comforters are you all.

³Is there no end to your long-winded speeches?

What provokes you to continue testifying?

⁴I could also speak like you

if you were in my place;

I could heap up words against you

and shake my head at you.

⁵But I would encourage you with my mouth,

and the consolation of my lips would bring relief.

⁶Even if I speak, my pain is not relieved,

and if I hold back, how will it go away?

— Job 16:2-6
